Who is making a difference in food and agriculture today?

Nominations are now open for the 2027 Farm Foundation Awards, recognizing the people, organizations, and ideas creating meaningful impact across the food and agriculture sectors.

In June 2026, we celebrated Dr. Andrew Muhammad with the R.J. Hildreth Public Policy Award, Dr. Mya O. Price with the Emerging Leader Award, and Joel Harris with the Innovator of the Year Award. Agribusiness Management, 7th Edition, by Jay Akridge, John Foltz, Elizabeth A. Yeager, Brady E. Brewer, and Trey Malone were recognized as the Farm Foundation Book of the Year.

Who should we recognize next?

Now is your opportunity to recognize them. Nominations are open in five categories: 
R.J. Hildreth Public Policy Award 
Transformational Leadership Award 
Innovator of the Year Award 
Emerging Leader Award 
Farm Foundation Book of the Year Award 

Anyone may submit a nomination, including a self-nomination. Award recipients will be recognized in person at the Farm Foundation Round Table meeting in Toronto, Canada, in June 2027.
